The
1988
release
Sathya
was
arguably
one
of
the
most
iconic
films
of
its
time.
Directed
by
the
then
newcomer
Suresh
Krissna,
the
action-drama
featured
Kamal
Haasan
in
the
titular
role
and
proved
to
be
a
landmark
film
for
him.
The
film
ruffled
a
few
feathers
because
of
its
hard-hitting
depiction
of
the
challenges
faced
by
the
youth.
The
film's
'spiritual
sequel'
Dha
Dha
87,
featuring
'ageing
superstar'
Charuhasan
in
the
titular
role,
hit
screens
on
March
1,
2019,
and
opened
to
an
okay
response
at
the
box
office.
It,
however,
failed
to
impress
the
critics
who
termed
it
as
a
'gimmick'.
Now,
Dha
Dha
87
has
fallen
prey
to
piracy.
Leaked
In
Tamilrockers
In
an
unfortunate
development,
Dha
Dha
87
has
been
leaked
online
by
Tamilrockers
and
is
available
for
free
download.
The
leaked
version
is
reportedly
of
'high
quality'
which
has
ruffled
a
few
feathers.
Fans
Condemn
The
Leak
Needless
to
say,
the
leak
has
upset
fans
big
time.
Most
of
them
have
asked
movie
buffs
to
refrain
from
downloading
the
pirated
version
while
requesting
authourities
to
take
action
against
those
behind
the
'heartless
act'.
The
Collections
Will
Not
Be
Affected
Dha
Dha
87
is
a
relatively
small
movie
that
has
been
shot
against
a
limited
budget.
As
it
did
not
have
a
good
first
week,
it
is
unlikely
to
make
much
of
an
impact
in
Week
2.
In
other
words,
the
leak
is
unlikely
to
affect
the
box
office
collections.
The
Background
Tamilrockers
is
known
for
leaking
new
releases
on
Day
1
itself.
2.0,
Dhilluku
Dhuddu
2,
118
and
LKG
are
just
a
few
of
the
popular
movies
that
suffered
because
of
this
notorious
gang.
Even
though
the
likes
of
NOTA
actor
Vijay
Deverakonda
and
Vishal
have
condemned
those
behind
piracy,
the
problem
still
persists.
Let
us
hope
that
those
in
authority
find
a
permanent
and
effective
solution
to
the
problem
at
the
earliest.
Piracy
is
an
unethical
and
unacceptable
crime
which
can't
be
tolerated
under
any
circumstances.
